The Leadership Advantage: What All Women Have
(but most don't use)
With Esther Orioli, EQ and leadership expert, author and host of the weekly radio show Leading With Emotional Intelligence

It's been well documented that emotional intelligence, or EQ, is crucial to leadership success - great news for women who are naturally higher in EQ than men. Yet, when it comes to the workplace and getting ahead, women often fall short of using this innate gift to get promotions, projects and raises. Why?

Get an inside look into the pros and cons of the ways women lead, why our brains work differently than our male colleagues, and how to parlay our EQ advantage into work that we love and excel at even in the male identified world of business.

In this session you'll learn:

ﾠThe three most common errors women in leadership make
ﾠHow to differentiate your communication style from your male colleagues
ﾠWhen to express feelings and when to make statements
ﾠFive misunderstandings that rookie leaders often make
ﾠWhat you should never do to get ahead - EVER

Esther Orioli will enlighten and entertain you with her take on leveraging women's emotional intelligence for personal and professional success and how to avoid becoming a "man-made" leadership disaster.
